<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">I want to give a great public shout out of Appreciation to my friend Rebecca King at the Northwest Elder Law Group. She is a facebook friend of mine and saw an exasperated post about the duration
of time it is taking to get filings back from King County Recorder - and introduced me Simplifile. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">If you don't know Simplifile.....check them out. Appears to be an easy and cheap ($50 annual license plus $5 per transaction for plan for those who don't record that much) way to avoid mailing
things to recording. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">IF YOU ARE MAILING to King County Recording - had a nice talk with the Records and Licensing Services Division Director - Norm Alberg. Here is what I learned that I want to pass along as a public
service announcement. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">It takes approximately 14 days to process a transfer filing (such as a PR Deed) when it is sent via mail. THEN, all of the filings in one month are HELD for microfiche imaging AND THEN RETURNED
to you. So for my filing that was sent in the middle of July. It was recorded on August 3rd and it was put (allegedly) in the mail back to me on September 8th. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

time. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
